I take that back after looking at it, the script uses the day data so can only report what has been recorded against the met day set in Cumulus.

That's ok. I edited the dayfile in SQL for that one and only figure, as I can't see it being beaten for the rest of the year. I might consider switching to 9am rollover times on December 31st- if I can remember.

A new record, here, this morning. 99% humidity. I think that is a feat in itself? I think i'm right in saying, the older temp/humidity sensors on Davis Pro2's tend to be a bit on the low side when recording high humidity?Everything was extremely wet this morning though (no rain) so not surprising.The closest point between the two, was the temp at 13.7°C and the dew point at 13.6°C

A new monthly record yesterday. Highest minimum for September in 8 years of keeping records. Cumulus correctly recorded a minimum of 19.1C at 04:15 but we had a second warm night last night and just before midnight the temp was 19.8C so I'm going to manually adjust the record.

Just one of the downsides of a midnight to midnight period instead of ending at 09:00. No matter.

My station installed July 2008 and started uploading to WU July 26th, and started with Cumulus Oct 23rd so not many new records anymore. However August 2016 had 4 Monthly records:Highest Apparent Temperature 40.3°C Aug 12Highest Heat Index 42.8°C Aug 12Highest Minimum 23.4°C Aug 12Highest Monthly Rainfall 139.2 mm

and September so far has a new Highest Heat Index 41.4°C Sep 7

August 2016 had an average temp of 22.5°C which is 1.8° higher than the 8 year August averageAugust 2016 had an average High temp of 28.5°C which is 1.9° higher than the 8 year August average High, with 7 days of plus 30°C August 2016 had an average Low temp of 16.9°C which is 2.0° higher than the 8 year August average Low.

After a very dry early summer August had 18 days with some rainfall.Total rainfall August 2016 139.2 mm with the next highest year 2014 at 104.0 mm.

With more rain than normal for August in 2016 the total sunshine was 240.8 hrs or average of 7.8 hrs/day, which compares to the 5 year average of 8.6 hrs/day in August.

Annoying to be so close to breaking that record?! I was at 48mph at 7am, that equalled my highest - where I thought it would stay, until 50mph came along.I just need 50 more miles to beat my wind run record now.
